Minnesota's season is over after the Vikings went 7-9 and finished third in the NFC North.
The Vikings had a roller-coaster season with a 1-5 start, followed by a 5-1 stretch that was capped by a 1-3 finish.
Here's a look at where the Vikings rank heading into the 2021 offseason:
No. 19 (up 4 spots): Dan Hanzus – NFL.com
Time to make the case for Justin Jefferson as Offensive Rookie of the Year, as the receiver just ended his outstanding debut season with nine catches for 133 yards in a win over the Lions. That gave the LSU product an even 1,400 yards on the season, the most ever for a rookie wideout in the Super Bowl era. Jefferson also had seven games with at least 100 yards, tied with Odell Beckham for the most by a rook in the Super Bowl era. Per ESPN, Jefferson contributed 32.8 percent of the Vikings receiving yards and accounted for 21.9 percent of his team's yards from scrimmage despite playing on a run-first offense. The No. 22 overall pick hit the ground running as an NFL superstar — an absolute rarity that is deserving of special recognition.
